Renal Intervention
Hands-on training for renal angioplasty and management of renal artery bleeding
Hands-on training for renal angioplasty and management of renal artery bleeding
Mentice Renal Intervention is designed for the training of renal angiography, angioplasty, stenting, and management of renal bleeding caused by perforation. Various lesion locations, anatomical variations, and other learning challenges are presented. Practice with this module will improve the learner’s understanding of therapeutic treatment options in patients with hemodynamically significant renal artery disease. The entire training procedure is performed in a learner-focused, risk-free environment using real clinical devices.
Renal revascularization is mainly requested to investigate renal artery stenosis, flush pulmonary edema, and rapidly decreasing renal function. Renal artery angioplasty and stenting is a complex procedure—this module focuses on teaching fundamental techniques to junior fellows. Experience in all aspects of peripheral angioplasty and familiarity with interventional devices and associated techniques is important. This module features a variety of renal lesions, anatomies, the possibility to practice alternative access, such as radial or femoral approach, for severly angulated renal takeoffs, as well management of complications, such spasms and renal bleedings.
